    VB6 Project - what is needed?

    Hello,
    I am a complete newbie when it comes to both VB and Windows programming.
    My background is Assembler/COBOL on mainframes and C on UNIX and MS-DOS.
    Having been laid off I have entered the world of freelance contract work.

    Here is my problem.. A client gave me the source and .vbp and a .exe for
    a LARGE project to which changes are needed. How do I determine,
    reliably, which external modules/references are really used?

    Thanks,

    Mike

    Open the project file (.vbp).
    On the menu, click Project -> References...
    This will give you a list of all the external libraries that have been
    imported (if it's ticked it's in). Whether they have actually been used or
    not is another matter.

    Rowland.

      vb will not allow you to remove a reference that is beeing used in the
      project


      so try to remove them and there is your answer :-)
